Rooted my Note 3 using Towel root. Installed Supersu. Root Checker says I have root Access. However, I cannot update the SU binary. I do not have TWRP or CW Mod . Any suggestion? SU
is granting permissions.
Did u trip knox?

I heard that the SuperSU version on the play store does not currently work and you have to download 1.99r4 from somewhere.
OP probably didn't follow directions.

KNOX is 0x0. I can't find the SU 1.99 apk. Can only find zip.

Yeah, you remove the SuperUser.apk file from the Common folder in that ZIP file, and put it on an SD card, or drop it on your phone somewhere over USB, make sure the SuperSU you currently have installed is uninstalled, and then install the APK you transferred over, that will fix the issue.
Its to my understanding you do not need superuser the towelroot has its on built in superuser its working fine for me without the playstore superuser ...on a dif note does the safestrap work with this towelroot? Att note 3 kk ota.
Thanks everyone. Got the apk for SU 1.99r4 and it works fine now.

Yes but now you grant su to any program without permissions. If you never get malware that's okay I guess... Just iffy

Where did you get the apk? I'm having the same problem.
Use safestrap2 and flash supersu
Superuser 2.0 is available on the playstore now.

Hi
I have tested the root tool from China forum. My device is SGP312 WIFI 32GB 10.3.1.C.0.136. No need to unlocked.
Download the attachment and install. One click and then it will reboot. It is rooted!
But the root-mangement software is Chinese. You can download Supersu or Superuser.
Use the Chinese root software to give Supersu or Superuser root access.
Run Supersu or Superuser and upgrade the binary. Exit and uninstall the Chinese root software.
Reboot. Then you are rooted with Supersu or Superuser.
This is the original link: http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
incredible...works on sgp321 .244......good job....juat install supersu afterwards and remove the chinese app....greatttttt
Good! I can confirm it works, just rooted my still locked SGP311FR with it.
What I don't like it's an exe file, install the app then run it to root.
If someone can extract the script and replace the root apk by superSU it would be cool.
Also I noticed while rooting my tablet that the screen became white two times (really fast for less than a second, sort of blink) like the Display tricks that were used before to root our xperia's.
Anyway thanks.
Btw : @insideccw posting a link to the source, and maybe the name of the autor of this tool, would be better if it's not your own tool.

That might be the exploit that is accessing the framebuffer causing it.

I tried this with my 312, but upon removing the chinese superuser with Titanium-backup, i could no longer use Superuser or SuperSU from the play-store. Any insight on to what exactly you guys went about this? I have reset using PC Companion.
Word fine With 4.2.2 thx a lot

I think you need to install the alternative superuser app before deleting the Chinese one. I used superuser by chainsdd on my sp

works great...thanks
That's pretty much what I did. I've tried SuperSU, superuser, and the cwm app. The problem seems to be that the updated binaries don't "stick", SuperSU claimed updating was a success but then prompted me to do so every time I opened it.

I don't know if the info in this thread may be of any use : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539711.
Specifically in the OP :
Remember, if you remove older first without installing newer one, you will lose Root n newer won't run.
One more thing market version will be regular application, so hard reset can delete it. So better install with flashable zip, to make it system application.
And in Post #8 :
Confirmed working fine! Recommended to install via CWM. It will replace the other (superuser) automatically so you don't have to manually remove it.
I used the above zip file and instructions a long time ago on my Galaxy S....but it may still be relevant for Tablet Z.
What I've been doing us installing from the play store, updating binaries, and then removing the Chinese app. Once I do that, I lose root in the market superSU and other root apps.
I'll probably end up unlocking the boot loader and flashing an image over adb.
Thanks for the help!

That is because you dont have /system r/w access.

It worked for me...I accidentally removed the Chinese app.
1. I did a reroot again.
2. installed dualrecovery and flashed the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip.
3. It works now.
Supersu and cwm superuser caused my phone to go in a reboot loop when I tried updating the binaries. Superuser by ChainsDD is working fine though.

insideccw,
Any tips on how t go about correcting this? Would I need to use adb or can I handle this form within android?
EDIT: Looks like others are having the same issue.
Doesn't work with SGP321 LTE tablet (on the newest firmware .244)
1. in order to uninstall the chinese root app one needs to have SuperSu
2. once you install SuperSU the root checker shows "OK, you're rooted"
3. once you get rid of the chinese root the root checker shows "you're NOT rooted" and the SuperSU binaries can't get updated (strange it needs another update)

Works on mine. Update the superuser binaries before deleting Chinese superuser app. On mine, supersu detected the Chinese one and deleted it for me

For those of you having this issue as I was, I just got mine to work with SuperSU. Hopefully these steps will work for you too:
-Gain root with the magical Chinese root tool
-install SuperSU
-update SuperSU binaries
-in SuperSU settings, choose "Switch superuser app"
-reboot the tablet and immediately go to the playstore and install SuperSU
-update SuperSU binaries
Let me know if it works!
Can anyone confirm towelroot working?

Works good you need to use the updated SuperSU and it's good to roll. I'm on NC9 should work with the newest one also.here is the link to both supersu http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip and towelroot http://towelroot.com/

Confirming that tr works on NE3 (I537). I am (was?) completely stock before installing towelroot.
So I install towelroot, reboot, then install super user via google play? Correct? Any known issues so far?

towelroot installs superuser and it's an old one.so what I did was install Safestrap and flashed SuperSU through the stock slot and am up to date.

Download, open folder, open "common" file, click superuser.apk icon and install. This is good for those who don't want to install SafeStrap.

Towelroot Working
Yes I just did mine and it works. I'm having trouble with Super SU. Message comes up to disable KNOX. It's been trying to disable for 30 minutes. Not sure if there's a newer version of Super SU or maybe AT&T put a tougher version of KNOX in the update but seems to be stuck "disabling".
Update: I went back to home screen then a few minutes later started Super SU, got the prompt to disable KNOX and this time it worked.
I am using a Sony tablet s 4.0.1 which I rooted with kingroot and I now have kinguser. I want to replace it with superuser, and I have tried many ways but none worked. I need a way to replace kinguser with superuser and update binaries in SuperSU,without using a PC . SuperSU always says that installation failed and it has detected other apps which may cause conflict. Please help
I have the same problem.

Anyone use kingroot got this problem. So sad. I'm waiting for someone can fix.
Did you try to flash SuperSU 2.49beta already? That one worked for me after rooting with KingUser.
Download the 2.49 SuperSu flashable zip, then go into the recovery of your choice and flash it. Then boot the phone and go to Kinguser and then the settings and click on Root Permission and disable it. Then reboot and go to SuperSu and install binaries and you're good to go.

After a while, I finaly could get root acces to my S5 g900a with base band NG3. Im trying to launch SuperSU and it says me to update binary code or number, something like that. When Is updating it, the app ask me for disable Samsung KNOX. After hitting "OK" it says me that it was impossible to disable.
I think thats why i cant use FlashFire to upgrade to Lollipop with an OTA. Can someone tell me how to do all of this? Thanx

For me, I solved the issue by flashing the beta SuperSU from Chainfire's site.
I used SuperSu-Me by forum member gatesjunior. $3.99 in the Play Store.
Kingroot has its own superuser app and will unroot your phone if you uninstall it.
SuperSU-Me freezes Kingroot, installs SuperSU, then installs Kingroot while keeping root.
